OFFICIAL '08 Nissan GTR Thread *now with test results*

LOS ANGELES — Nissan announced today that its 2009 Nissan GT-R will be priced at $69,850 for the base model, and $71,900 for the Premium trim. Both prices include delivery charges.

Nissan intends to build just 1,500 GT-Rs per year during this model’s lifecycle, and will announce dealer allocation plans later this week.

Pre-orders begin January 1, 2008, and the 2009 GT-R will officially go on sale in June.

What this means to you: If you haven’t already made friends with your local Nissan dealer, better get on the stick. — Kelly Toepke, News Editor
